The Books Of Power Novels & Stories

I even found the karma sutra amongst what I can only classify as the ‘self help’ section, opening it and then quickly closing it in case Enzo or his mother entered the room. A large book at the end of the shelf entitled “The Power and Responsibility of Men” caught my eye. It seemed to be more weathered than the rest of the books, but I didn't get why. “Who would be drawn to a book like that?” I asked myself, pulling it from the shelf.

Zora said, guiding me forward into the only well-lit room down here. Floor-to-ceiling shelves made up three of the walls with a wooden ladder leaning against each wall. The leather-bound books looked old, ancient with symbols I recognized. These were the books none of the public was able to see. Most of the time they were even kept away from royalty. Knowledge equaled power. Power equaled greed.

Mentally I shift myself toward the darkness invading his body. As I mentally weave my powers through the mass, I can see it is almost gone. I can feel some of the effects of the mass temporarily myself until I finish my own cleanse. To know even a fraction of what this boy has suffered breaks my heart. Nobody will fully realize just how strong this young pup is. As I continue to flitter around working my magic, I knew there is a warmth that comes from the work. I can always feel the heat building in my hands as I continue to move forward ridding his body of the last of the disease.

It was even bigger than the one at the mansion, filled with scrolls and books written in languages that my mind somehow understood instinctively. I found a thick book bound in dragon skin. The title read: "The Powers of the Pure Blood." I opened it eagerly. "The Pure Blood is the source of all life. Their blood can heal, but it can also destroy. When their emotions reach the peak, their true form awakens... The Crimson Eyes." "However, there is a price. Great power attracts great darkness. The Eclipse Cult seeks to use the Pure Blood to open the Gate of the Abyss. If the gate opens, all souls will be consumed..."

But the single thought of finding another mate so soon sent shivers down my spine. Up until he appeared, my wolf barely had a reason to be excited. A tall, commanding figure that stepped out of nowhere like a force of nature. His presence hit me before I even saw his face clearly. Power. Raw, controlled power that made the air itself feel heavier. My wolf, Naryvex, stirred weakly inside me, her voice barely above a whisper when she spoke. Who exactly is that? I blinked slowly, fighting against myself to keep my eyes upon despite the weakness in me.

As for the rest of my punches, they landed on areas that wouldn't be easily found. After all, he was the chairman of Kingsley Group. Hence, it might lead to a series of troublesome events if I left too many bruises on his face. Half an hour later, my parents-in-law and Oliver were all easily subdued by me and sat on the sofa listening to my lecture. "Maybe you all haven't heard that I was born with superhuman strength. So, don't try to rebel against me. I am stronger than you think. Men are not the symbol of strength. I am.

"Congratulations, you have reached a scenario where you need an upgrade to pass" "You have gathered enough point and increased your mind reading capabilities to level five, do you want to use those points to awaken a new mind power, or increase your mind reading capabilities to level six" Kaikuh became in shock as she thought, "Mind Powers, so does it mean that my ability isn't only to read minds?" "Right now, reading the beast mind isn't going to be helpful, so I'd pick, awaken a new mind power" Kaikuh thought as her system replied.

he asked bluntly. I blinked once. Then I turned on my heel and walked past him. I didn’t have the time or energy for lost middle aged men who obviously wanted trouble. "Hey!" I didn't stop. I headed straight for my usual table—and froze. The books were gone. Every single one. The texts I'd been studying before everything went to shit. The book Cassian had personally handed me, the one meant to help me understand my powers. Gone. "Hey, I'm talking t—"

I cross to the door, pausing in the doorway to look back at him—sprawled across the bed, king of this crumbling kingdom, certain he’s the one who set the rules. He thinks he’s untouchable, safe behind his walls, his “no-strings” speech a shield.

"They have, ever since she was born." Cassandra set the little serpent among the piles of gold coins. The creature sagged in defeat and exhaustion after lying before that terrible fire. "There it is," Vasilisa's voice came from behind a mountain of walnut-sized raw rubies. It wasn't hard to find the book. It was placed on a golden stand in between two golden Sirin statues. The grimoire turned out to be the largest book Cassandra had ever seen, with pages made of parchment illuminated with tracery, and it was open to a page thickly covered with elegant, intricate writing.
